Author's Chapter Notes:

Thanks for visiting this old story! On my new account I've re-written this story, this time it's much longer and much more professional. Please visit: http://giantessworld.net/viewstory.php?sid=6238&chapter=1

It was 09:00 AM on Wednesday five May 2257, when me , Oliver Benson, and seven others were called upon by the Overseer of our Vault. The
Overseer was the man in charge of the Vault. His name was Abraham  John, an old man that rarely came out of is chambers. He had been in charge
ever since his father died of old age in 2238. This call didn't come as a surprise for us. According to a my friend who worked with the scientists,
one of the men that was called-upon, some head scientists had been talking about "leaving the vault". But whenever he asked about it he would
be dismissed and sent out, back to his chamber. His name is Timmy Mitchellson. I've known him since my first days. We were born shortly
after each other, and have been neighbours and friends ever since. And now we stood together in the Overseer's chamber with sic others, awaiting
what important things he had to say. I did not know any of the other. Our Vault is huge, with fivethousand inhabitants, and most dwellers
never came out of their section. Finally the Overseer entered the room.

"I thank you all for coming."
The Overseer started with. He sat down in his chair and poured himself a glass of wine in. He seemed very nervous.
"First of all I have to tell you that this is highly confidential, and you are forbidden to speak with this to anyone else. What I am about to tell you,
will be the most important event in your entire lifes. It might very well be the most important event in human history."
The Overseer took a big gulp of his glass and refilled it with more wine. I saw his hand shaking a bit.
"I trust you all know what happened one and a half century ago, and what's still going on above the Vault."
We nodded. We knew enough of the situation thanks to the history lessons we got when we were smaller.
"My spies in the above world have given me information. And it's troubling. According to them the rulers above have gotten their hands on an
old world map containing the locations of all the Vaults. It wasn't the specific location but they know where they have to search now. It won't
take long before they find the Vault and kill us all."
Then suddenly a woman came forward.
"You mean that they can burst through these doors any moment and kill us and our families?!"
The Overseer gave an angry look. He didn't like to be interrupted. He replied with:
"No Melissa. Not quite. These 'doors' as you call them were build to stop missiles. The rulers of above don't even have guns or anything like that anymore.
But that doesn't mean we're save. As far as we know they could hack  into our base and open the doors from there, or something else. We don't
know, but the important thing is to make sure they never find out."
Now it was my turn to come forward.
"So you want the eight of us to stop the threat of an entire empire?"
The Overseer noticed my sarcasme and stood up.
"If you could please let me finish I can adress you all. This vault was made to keep humans a live long enough to make the empire think we were
all dead. At that point we could steal a sample of the FEV and study it. That way we could make a second more efficient version so that we could
re-take the world. But because the empire knows where we are located, I have to speed things up. That's why I have assembled a small squad
of specialists to find it."
He started walking towards us.
"I am aware that most of you don't know each other. Allowe me to introduce you to each other."
The overseer walked to the man on the left.
"This man is Gilligan Darkwater. This man has been thosen because of his sniper abilities on the training field. The woman on your right
you've already 'met'. This hothead is Melissa Flander, chosen because of her excellent field skills with automatic rifles. Just like this man
on you're right, Sam Emanuel. On your right hand you will find your medic, Charles VonSting. Next to you stands the team mechanic,
Jane Somer, and next to her stands the survival expert. Because of her tall length, 6"2, she was able to blend in the empire for short times.
After a while They will figure her out, for she still is very short compared to the rest, so don't think you'll be able to just send her in.
Her name is Clerence Yenotin. She knows the outside world like no other. Then there is your scientist, Timmy Mitchellson. He joins you
because of his hack skills, and for studies. And finally, Oliver Benson. He will be the squad's leader. You are to listen to him, at all times.
Now that I've introduced you to each other, you are to go to the research section. They will give you the information of the outside world.
You are dismissed."

After the Overseer's speech, we made our way to the research section. The section where Timmy works.
"That was quite something, wasn't it?" Timmy asked me along the way
"Yeah tell me about it. What do you think they'll tell us in the research section?"
"I don't know. They never tell me anyrhing in there."
"I'm pretty sure they'll just brief us in, and give us our suplies." Charles answered.
"Yeah I think so too. I just hope they'll let us say goodbye to our families. Wouldn't be surprised if they wouldn't let us talk to them,
just in case we might inform them." I answered
After about ten minutes we reached the entrance of the research facility, and we were immediately greed by the head of scientists.
"Welcome men. Glad to see you doing something big Timmy. I always knew you'd end up well." The scientist said to Timmy who walked
in first of us. He was Timmy's boss, and really seemed proud of his student.
"Thank you, mister Glenn. I'll make you proud."
Mister Glenn made a silence wave that said that we should follow him. We arrived in his office. He pointed towards the chairs so that
we could sit down. He took a big map out of his desk and presented it to us.
"This is an old world map of what used to be Western Europe. I'm sure you've seen this before at school. You can see the location of our
Vault here." He pointed at a location in Eastern Holland, named Enschede.
"Since the discovery of the Vault there have been many patrols in the surrounding area." He made a cirkel on the map with his finger
which marked Holland, Belgium, Luxembourg and Western Germany.
"You should proceed with high caution. There also are some checkpoints for you. We have a few spies here, here and here."
He pointed at the German cities Essen, Hamburg and Berlin.
"They will provide you shelter and re-supplyment for your journey in Western Europe."
Mr Glenn took another map out of his desk, this one form Eastern Europe.
"Your objective is to reach Minsk, the former capital of Belarus. We managed to make contact
with one of the inhabitants and she is willing to help us. I'm afraid I don't know more about the
locations, but she will help you infiltrate the HQ so you can steal an FEV sample."
"Is this all the information we need?" I replied.
"Well, no." Glenn replied
"Thanks to several infiltrations made by miss Yenotin, we've been able to get lot's of information
about the women from above. We've made four groups:

"The first, and most common group, the Amazons. They are between seven and ten feet tall.
Resistant to radiation and cold and are stronger than most heavy weights here. Because of the
resistance to cold, most of them wear no clothing anymore. They are usually equipt with
melee weapons that they used thousands of years ago. Like spears and clubs. But if not,
their fists are deadly as well."

"Second, and these are quite rare, you have the Behemoths. These women have been injected
with the virus twice, and because of that, they are significantly bigger and stronger than
the Amazons. Only the survival rate of a second dose is really low, so most of those who
tried died. Usually between twenty and thirty feet tall, these women don't need weapons
to fight. A simple punch and you'll be as dead as a fly after you hit it."

"Thirt there are the giantess's. With three injections, there only are a couple of dosen who
survived the progress. With the height of fifty feet, these women can not be killed by the weapons
we give you. The only way they could be killed in the war was with missile launchers. Old war
reports tell us that they sometimes instead of crushing their opponent, they would pick them up,
and swallow them. You should never let these see you. You WILL be killed."

"Now the last one. Only a few of the Ginormous live. They are all the women Dominika Avdonin
wanted to keep alive for many millennia. As far as we know it, only the head of scientist Benan Belik,
the highest commander Amanda Heuvels and herself have taken four doses. Only Amanda Heuvels
has been seen once, and what I was told she could easily have been eighty feet tall."

Mister Glenn gave me the list of the giantess's from above and the information needed. He opened
a big cabinet and told us to look inside.
"This will be your equipment. Automatic rifles for Mr Emanuel and Miss Flander, a Sniper rifle for
Mr Darkwater, repair equipment for Somer, medical equiment for Mr VonSting, and your own
PHD (Personal Hack Device) for my student. Now for the secondairy weapons you will all get
a pistol and a knife."
Mister Glenn turned to me and asked me what weapon I fancied
"What about that one?" I pointed at a weird looking pistol.
"That is our newly developed laser pistol. We haven't run enough tests yet but I think it should
work just fine. Here, take it. Might as well try it out."
Mister Glenn took a small box out of the cabin and opened it. It was loaded with jars.
He opened it and showed us small pills. I saw a smile on Timmy's face.
"These are also newly developed. And I'm proud to say that it was Timmy's work. One small
pill will be the same as breakfast or dinner. Take one when you wake up and one before you go
to sleep. There are plenty, so don't worry about running out of them on your quest."
We put our armor on, took our equipment and were ready to go.
"Just one more thing before you go." Glenn said
"This may disturb you, but I should inform you on this one. If all is right, all men in the upper world
died out atleast before 2150. These women haven't seen a man in over a century, and from old
data, we also found out that the hormones also got infected. That's been causing all the body
changes. How should I put this? In scientific terms I would say they all are seriously libidinous.
In your terms, I'd say they are most likely willing to rape you."
We all stared at him with silence, and slowely walked away. Away towards the Vault exit.
